Visit with Lauren, Anneke, adn Marielle






















This year marked Lauren's second annual trip to Ohio in August. She used to come in January because of her work schedule, but now she is able to come in August to get a break from the Texas heat. Even though it was hot here, it was still cooler than Texas. We had the best time and now have collected many more hilarious sayings and memories. Smore on a stick, Danger, danger!, falling out of chairs. Four month Marielle is the cutest thing and is so sweet and content (when she is not in her car seat)! She always has her mouth open and is very wide eyed. Brooke wanted to hold her the whole time!! Anneke has been given the name Brute Force Warrior Princess! She is all girl but then loves to play rough with the boys and can push her way through anything. She is a riot and as usual kept us laughing the whole time. We got to go to the splash park , the zoo, Cosi - to see the most boring IMAX ever made. Don't go see Whales and Dolphins! It was so boring! All they showed was the backside of whales and dolphins and we made fun of Darryl Hannah's breathy voice the whole time. Our favorite line was, " The manatee has flatulence, look at its bubbles." I told my kids to think of that line whenever they are sad or nervous and it is sure to make them laugh! Try it, it works!! I miss my sister and nieces, but am thankful for the times we have together!
